Geography
The south, and east parts of district have mountainous landscape, while the northern parts consist of plains (Ili valley). The highest point in the district, the Saz mountain, is covered with permanent snow. The terrain has a slope towards the Kapchagay Reservoir.[5]
Having mild winters and hot summers, the district's climate is continental; in January, temperatures are between -6 and -10°С, and in July, temperatures are 20—24°С. Annual precipitation is 200—400 millimeters, increasing to 550—700 millimeters near the mountains.[5]
There are a lot of rivers in Enbekshikazakh District, including Issyk, Turgen, Kiikbay, Sholak, Shybykty, Belshabdar, Karaturyk, Lavarsaz, Asy and Chilik. The Konayev Canal (or Big Almaty Canal) passes through the district. Hydroelectric power stations are built on some of the rivers. In addition to the rivers, the district has lakes, including Issyk, Jasylkol and others.[5]
The non-mountainous part of the region is mostly semi-desert. Mountainous areas are affected by altitudinal zonation; steppes first changing to forests, and then switching to montane grasslands and shrublands.[5] The district has some protected areas, including Almaty Conversation, Issyk Kurgan, Shynturgen Refuge, and the Ile-Alatau National Park which partially lies within the district boundaries.[5]
History
The district was formed in 1928 as Syugatin District.[6] Then, in 1929, it was renamed to Enbekshikazakh.[7] First, the district's center was situated in Kara-Kemir. In 1932, it was moved to Esik city. In 1997, Chilik District's territory was added to Enbekshikazakh District.[8]
